Letters to Cleo came out of Boston in 1990 with a sound built for the modern-rock dial: bright, crunchy guitar pop with just enough fuzz on it to pass for alternative. Kay Hanley, Greg McKenna, Michael Eisenstein and Scott Riebling made their full-length debut with Aurora Gory Alice in 1993, and its "Here & Now" became the song everyone knows them by, a buoyant, hook-stuffed blast that feels like the first warm day of spring.
Wholesale Meats and Fish followed in 1995 with "Awake", then Go! in 1997 with "Veda Very Shining", by which point Stacy Jones and Tom Polce had joined the ranks. The band called it a day in 2000, came back for a short tour in 2008, and reunited again in 2016, releasing the Back to Nebraska EP that October.
